Look to Denmark, home of modern windmills (according to Jean-Michel Jarre!) for the several-megawatt turbines necessary to make wind a force to be reckogned with in the energy policy... :-) You guys are on the right course, but have quite some way to go.

Let's get some of these downtown! Chris, great job on this video.

Believe me there are parts of the state that are very viable for wind power. Do a search for Indiana Wind Farm and I think you’ll find Indiana is doing a lot of very large wind farms.
